He wants revenge against the brothers who betrayed him but first he has to get past the one man he can't resist...At the tender age of eight, Rafe Barretti lost everything. His parents, his childhood, his innocence. And the brothers who were supposed to protect him let him go instead. Twenty years later and he's finally ready to exact his revenge by taking away everything they hold dear - their company, their reputations, their futures. But even that isn't enough - their loved ones will have to pay too and all their precious secrets are fair game.Former mercenary Cade Gamble's only job is to take down the hacker stealing sensitive, private information from Barretti Security Group and Cade is damn good at his job. But there's more at stake because the co-founders of BSG, Dom and Vin Barretti, are like family and no one touches Cade's family. The fact that the vengeful young man turns out to be the youngest of the Barretti clan doesn't matter. But when their tumultuous encounters turn into something more, Cade will have to decide between protecting the only family he has and giving in to his need to save Rafe from himself.Can Cade help Rafe find redemption so he can forgive the sins of the past or will Rafe's quest for vengeance destroy them both?Note: This book contains explicit M/M content and is intended for mature audiencesAlthough this book is part of a series, it can be read as a stand-alone. No cliffhangers.***Special Note: I've decided to make Book 1 in this series, Loving Vin (M/F) free but only available through my website sometime in the near future.

I reckon that my rating is entirely based on so many emotive situations -without purple prose, luckily- and burning sex, the two aspects in which resides the best of Sloane Kennedy writing, according my guidelines and tastes.

Because if I would want evaluate this book by its logic and consistency, it would be a titanic task, the plot is full of holes: To what Dani says in her review concerning Rafe's biological father and the little sense of Rafe seeking revenge on his brothers, I add that is impossible to me to believe that Rafe, when hacking Barretti Security systems and looking for his brothers personal files, he would not search for anything about himself. What? Is he not human? In my opinion, those are flaws more than basic in a plot that's built on mud premises.

Still, I'm going through a season on which what I want in my reads is a good dose of melodrama spiced with plenty of sexual tension, in exchange I'm willing to tolerate lacks of logical reasoning and to put in play all suspension of disbelief that I'm capable. Within this frame, A Family Chosen Series is demonstrating to be the perfect brain candy. ( )

I love Cade

Rafe felt he was betrayed by the only family he knew and spent all of his life seeking revenge. Things take a crazy turn when he discovers Cade has been following him and he realizes things aren’t what they seemed. ( )

Over the last 24 hours I have read [a:Sloane Kennedy|13565650|Sloane Kennedy|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1469034883p2/13565650.jpg]'s [b:Redeeming Rafe|26147722|Redeeming Rafe (Barretti Security Series, #2)|Sloane Kennedy|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1441310918s/26147722.jpg|46102629], and [b:Finding Trust|25978624|Finding Trust (Finding Series, #2)|Sloane Kennedy|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1439249002s/25978624.jpg|45888569]. I could write some long, in-depth review for each book and make them pretty with some hot gifs, but I'm not. Instead, I'm going to make this pretty simple. In fact, I'm copying this one review for both books cuz I'm just feeling lazy that way. So here goes: I enjoyed both books but what I really enjoyed was the fact that the author did not pigeonhole her M/M heroes in these books. One is not more Alpha than the other. They each have moments of intense, dominate need for their partner. One is also not more submissive than the other. Vulnerability is seen in both Cade and Rafe in [b:Redeeming Rafe|26147722|Redeeming Rafe (Barretti Security Series, #2)|Sloane Kennedy|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1441310918s/26147722.jpg|46102629]; and Jax and Dane in [b:Finding Trust|25978624|Finding Trust (Finding Series, #2)|Sloane Kennedy|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1439249002s/25978624.jpg|45888569]. I read a lot of M/M romance and many of them have main characters who fall into a stereotypical pairing that sometimes comes across as one partner being über masculine and the other sort of girly. That isn't necessarily a bad combo, but if the writer isn't careful those rigid roles can lead to a boring story. It is refreshing to read an M/M book with characters who embrace both sides of their nature. Plus, I just gotta say, I really enjoy reading about the big Alpha badasses getting off on being manhandled. sigh...

These are the first M/M books I've read by Kennedy so I'm not sure if this is her norm when writing M/M but it really worked for me. ( )
